When I purchased my boat anchor 312, it had a pcv installed in it. My valley cover from my 292 had the old pcv system that ran around to the intake manifold in front of the carb. I re-used the steel line to the front, eliminated the old pcv in the front, and used the new valley cover with the pcv installed. I believe the grommet and pcv are from a 300-6 valve cover.  That is something Someone has fabricated. Looks like a nice Job. Too bad Someone is not making these and selling. The T-Bird Ones are getting harder to find..

You must have used the CASCO Kit PCV - Valve and Grommet _2 - CASCO 6758A  I found the spacer separately for much less off fleabay.

That's what I was looking for. Thanks. Is there any performance advantage to replacing the down draft tube with a PVC?No performance advantage either way. The PCV valve does allow for a cleaner and less leak prone engine. Potential oil drips from the road draft tube are eliminated while the PCV valve itself does permit excess crankcase pressure to be relieved by lieu of a negative pressure on the crankcase (vacuum) thus taking some of the load off of both the front and rear crankshaft seals.

I'm not sure what sized grommet I used with my adapter. I found an old brake cylinder boot that fit and trimmed it the thickness I needed. The pcv valve I used was an AC CV723C. It's one that you attaach a hose on both ends. It's used on 1968 -1970 GM 250 6 CYL

The forward baffle is the one being discussed, correct? The rear baffle is a splash guard for either the road draft tube (BIRD - 57 FORD 8V - Or S/C) or the later 292 PCV System  The Initial Question was about the Front Baffle. I just thought is was a good place to make a Suggestion about the PCV. The correct T-Bird Valley cover is the hardest Item to find when U want to install PCV and He already has the Pan.
